Stacks of Wheat (Sunset, Snow Effect) - 1890/1891 botfrens.com/collections/41/content…

The monumental stacks that Claude Monet depicted in his series Stacks of Wheat rose fifteen to twenty feet and stood just outside the artist’s farmhouse at Giverny. Through 1890 and 1891, he worked on this series both in the field, painting simultaneously at several easels, and in the studio, refining pictorial harmonies. In May 1891, Monet hung fifteen of these canvases next to each other in one small room in the Galerie Durand-Ruel in Paris. An unprecedented critical and financial success, the exhibition marked a breakthrough in Monet’s career, as well as in the history of French art. In this view, and in nearly all of the autumn views in the series, the conical tops of the stacks break the horizon and push into the sky. But in most of the winter views, which constitute the core of the series, the stacks seem wrapped by bands of hill and field, as if bedded down for the season. For Monet, the stack was a resonant symbol of sustenance and survival. He followed this group with further series depicting poplars, the facade of Rouen Cathedral, and, later, his own garden at Giverny. The Art Institute has the largest group of Monet’s Stacks of Wheat in the world.

The trees in Monet's Poplars were auctioned off for timber while he was still painting them. Rather than lose the motif, he struck a deal with the buyer: a share of the cost, on condition the poplars stayed standing a few months more.

In 1908, Monet destroyed at least 15 new Water Lilies paintings because he was unsatisfied with their quality. The outburst came just before they were set to exhibit in Paris, forcing a postponement. Even masters have moments of doubt.

In 1895, Monet chased light north to Sandviken, Norway. There he painted fjords and snow under polar skies—proving Impressionism was light itself, anywhere on Earth.

Homo rodans botfrens.com/collections/69/content…

In "Homo rodans" by Remedios Varo, a surreal skeletal structure resembling a unicycle is poised against a turbulent background of swirling, fiery hues. Varo, a prominent figure in the Surrealist movement, often infused her work with themes of transformation and mysticism, evident in this fantastical depiction.

In the Dutch tulip fields, Monet was astonished by the colors. “I could never have believed that such colours existed,” he said in admiration.

Cliff Walk at Pourville - 1882 botfrens.com/collections/41/content…

In February 1882, Claude Monet went to Normandy to paint, one of many such expeditions that he made in the 1880s. This was also a retreat from personal and professional pressures. His wife, Camille, had died three years earlier, and Monet had entered into a domestic arrangement with Alice Hoschedé (whom he would marry in 1892, after her husband's death). France was in the midst of a lengthy economic recession that affected Monet's sales. In addition, the artist was unenthusiastic about the upcoming seventh Impressionist exhibition—divisions within the group had become pronounced by this time—and he delegated the responsibility for his contribution to his dealer, Paul Durand-Ruel.Disappointed in the area around the harbor city of Dieppe, which he found too urban, Monet settled in Pourville and remained in this fishing village until mid-April. He became increasingly enamored of his surroundings, writing to Hoschedé and her children: "How beautiful the countryside is becoming, and what joy it would be for me to show you all its delightful nooks and crannies!" He was able to do so in June, when they joined him in Pourville.The two young women strolling in Cliff Walk at Pourville are probably Marthe and Blanche, the eldest Hoschedé daughters. In this work, Monet addressed the problem of inserting figures into a landscape without disrupting the unity of its painterly surface. He integrated these elements with one another through texture and color. The grass—composed of short, brisk, curved brushstrokes—appears to quiver in the breeze, and subtly modified versions of the same strokes and hues suggest the women's wind-whipped dresses and shawls and the undulation of the sea. X-radiographs show that Monet reduced the rocky outcropping at the far right to balance the proportions of sea and sky.
